# What You Need:

06 - Place in the freezer for at least 2 hours, or until the bites are completely firm and set.
07 - Once frozen solid, remove the bites from the molds and transfer them to an airtight container. Store in the freezer until ready to serve.
# Expert Advice:
01 -
- You can eat four of them and still feel smug about your choices.
- They disappear so fast you will want to double the batch immediately.
02 -
- Do not use crunchy peanut butter as the base because it makes the texture grainy instead of smooth.
- Letting them sit at room temperature for more than five minutes turns them into a puddle so eat them straight from the cold.
03 -
- Use a cookie scoop instead of a spoon for perfectly even portions every single time.
- The mixture tastes completely different once frozen so trust the process even if the raw mix seems too tangy.
